That team has been together since U9 so if true- that’s some pretty big changes. Why the h@ll wants to drive to Alexandria from Loudoun?

There are a few kids that play in Loudoun but live in Fairfax Co. The commute is probably the same for them.

Current coach contract was not renewed! Fired maybe?

It would shock me if he was fired, but I guess stranger things have happened.

Have the offers MLSNext and Alexandria Red begin to go out for non-returning players?

For those who have dreams of going pro and can make an honest play for a college program, play in MLSNext. If you want HS and think you’ve got pro/college chances, find an ECNL team.

Out of the 23 USMNT team roster, only 2 are MLS players. The other 21 play in Europe.

and for boys, more and more college soccer scholarships are going to International/non-Americans. Many europeans on the rosters at top US Universities.

Do you mean for players that would be new to the club?

Most of the USMNT players on the roster played for MLS academies or at least the DA before they went oversees. Funny how they killed off the DA when it is clear it was increasing American player presence abroad.
